Open Source Abstract

Manuel Castells gets behind the logic, the inspiration, the history, the
progress and the future of Open Source. He argues that Open Source is not
anti-capitalist but a-capitalist, meaning that it is compatible with
different social logics and values. It is based on a form of social
organization that has profound political implications and may affect the way
we think about the need to preserve capitalist institutions and hierarchies
of production.
